1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

if you decide you want just the clamshell i can also pull the add tube and stub so its closer to ready. all up to you lol.

its just sitting here. kept it to build a spare 5.29 front for the taco but it turns out CVs are the fuse lol

 

Sweet, I'll take it when you're down this way next. Feel free to keep the tube and stub if you want them as spares, but no need to disassemble otherwise. The practice is good for me.

 

Well thats out of spec

 

got some authentic nachos that included colby jack cheese AND black olives. blessed

also got some long islands that were entirely devoid of alcohol. another successful night on the town

 

Launched the truck in 4WD tonight, 2 step on the new exhaust is still gunshots and loud AF. But damn as soon as bangs and burbles are done and we're accelerating hard its a good deep engine tone that you could totally have a conversation over. Truck has no issues getting up to 14psi in 1st gear still haha

 

Now slap it in 4lo and launch it

 

I think launching at 7psi in 4low 1st would explode the case in short order

 

maybe im an optimist but i think the front r&p would go first

 

It might, I'm not sure, it does admirably being a high pinon on a 4HI launch at least.

 

theres only one way to find out …

I think you would not have traction lol

I don't

 

Yeah, don't think I want to try punching it in low on the 2step still haha, lotta slop in that system, something may shear before the wheels get moving

 

Officially an uncle; my brother and his fiance had their baby

 

That's always fun. When I did the 3k rpm clutch dumps at the track, I thought for sure something would give out but dang it did it take the abuse. Poor truck has never had an easy life.

 

Yeah, left the launch 2step boost very low at 7psi because I've got a lot of mass to get moving. Maybe one day I'll raise it but I think much more power from a dead stop might be bad news for my driveshaft

 

the splines are probably not up for it lol

 

I remember flooring my Tacoma in 4 lo on payment one time thinking yeah something will break if keep doing that

But I neutral dropped it dozens of times at 3k rpm no problems, that trans still lives on in someone else's 4 runner

 

Unfortunately I can't do clutch dumps but 4low launching on dirt is definitely fun. I logged a few on pavement last year while trying to figure out an intermitten hesitation in the throttle, definitely felt like asking for something to snap and I've still got the boost turned down about as much as possible

 

Damn AI is scary good these days. I asked for the typical 6.0 owner in West Texas.
